Still watching episodes of Suits... I'm enjoying it as summer fare but not binge watching... there are enough seasons to last me well past the summer! I'm also not the most attentive watcher, I guess. I'm notorious for not learning the names of actors even in TV shows I have enjoyed watching, but there must be a place in trivia hell for someone who's up to episode four or five before realizing that Meghan Markle played a fairly prominent role in this series...
 
Not "exactly" a TV series, but entertaining. Just saw this about Cobra Kai:


I've already watched both seasons a couple of times already, and it is certainly entertaining. I especially like this scene from Season 1:


Besides, of course, the fantastic song "Take It On The Run", it shows Johnny and Daniel somewhat bonding,

Will have to look for that next month on Netflix...

I’ve gotten very interested in ‘Absentia’ on Amazon Prime. Three seasons.
FBI agent goes missing for six years and the ensuing story on her return to the world gets very twisty.

I've been wanting to see this, but didn't have a YT sub (I think that was the only source), so stoked about the Netflix release!

Hahaha, yeah, I think we need a title edit, to remove "TV" :D

Cobra Kai is a brilliant series. Probably one of my top 5 favorite TV shows since it started two years ago. I cannot wait for Season 3.

Could not agree more! I can re-watch it, and still get stroked! I will re-watch Seasons 1 & 2 when they appear on Netflix, even though I have already watched both a seasons at least 2 times.

And I also can't wait for Season 3. I'm anticipating a lot more drama, twists and turns, etc. One of the big questions is whether Allie will appear.

@vidjahgamz and @honestone33 OK, now I'm extra excited :D Still more than a month away, but I didn't realize until I re-read the article that S3 will premier on Netflix (since they acquired full rights). Nice!
What's really exciting is that the series will now get so much more viewership, given Netflix's presence almost everywhere. Also, Episode 4 from Season 2 was the highest ever one, of ALL series, to be DVR'd! That really says something.

YUP! I do hope Allie shows up in Season 3. I'm curious how that will play out since both Johnny and Daniel dated her. I can see Johnny trying to get her back (if she's single).

Also -- I'm sure you've heard but Nichole Brown who plays Aisha was fired from the show so I doubt we'll be seeing her in Season 3. Her character development was definitely starting to get interesting but it sounds like we won't find out now.

Netflix was always the best streaming platform for Cobra Kai. I never understood why they stayed on Youtube Red/Premium for so long. They'll get so much more viewership and hopefully that means they'll get MANY more seasons.

Very exciting!

Daniel had mentioned in Season 1 that she is married. But who knows?

Actually I did not know that. Too bad, as she was doing a good job.

Definitely! And I suspect the number of folks worldwide who DVR any episode on Netflix will be HUGE!

Just finished Hanna S2 which I found better than S1 even though I do like Joel Kinnaman. But those 8 episodes flew by so fast.

1) Have you watched The Killing? Pretty fantastic (Kinnaman and Mireille Enos), though it changed networks twice, and had a two-seasons that probably were more like one LONG season (that was also between the AMC >> Fox migration)

B) Your new avatar is freaking me out ... o_O

SG1, haven't done a play through in a few years. Started about a month ago and am starting S5 right now.

Man, you have a stronger constitution than I, my good fellow! I have watched specific episodes in the last few years, I have watched all of Stargate: Atlantis & Stargate: Universe as of late, but cannot bring myself to slog thru all of SG1...

Although I have een thinking about running thru Farscape again, because Claudia Black is hot... Huh, must be why I watched the last couple seasons of SG1 awhile back...?

And the pillar-boxing is rough, how did I watch 640x480 NTSC back in the day..?!? ;^p

I HAVE watched The Killing! That duo is exactly why I decided to watch Hanna S1.

Sorry about the creepy recent avatar. I'd hoped it was more friendly than the last one. Oops.
(It will change. I tend to swap out from time time. I have a low boredom threshold) ?

Hahaha, well, I meant it's freaking me out in the best way possible :D

Yeah, you'll like The Killing - I think - quite a bit, and I've been meaning to start Hanna!
